As technology continues to advance, some cell phones will be left behind when it comes to popular messaging app WhatsApp. Starting on January 1, 2024, certain older cell phone models will no longer be compatible with the app.
So, which cell phones will not be able to run WhatsApp in 2024? According to various sources, including El Tiempo, Mediotiempo, and First Hour, the following cell phone models will be affected:
– iPhones older than the iPhone 6
– Android phones running on versions older than 4.0.3
– Windows Phones running on versions older than Windows Phone 8.1

The potential loss of WhatsApp functionality on these devices has prompted concerns among users who rely on the app for communication. However, there are solutions to avoid being left without WhatsApp.
According to El Tiempo, users can upgrade to a newer phone model that is compatible with the app. Additionally, Mediotiempo warns users to be aware of this change and start planning ahead to avoid any inconvenience.
